HC Deb 18 November 1919 vol 121 cc808-9
65. Mr. OMAN

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the fact that many persons, on the official advice of the Coal Controller, purchased anthracite stoves and are at present unable to use them, because they cannot obtain that form of coal, measures might be taken to see that the British demand for this fuel should be satisfied before its export beyond seas is permitted?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given to a similar question asked by the hon. Member for the Edgbaston Division of Birmingham on the 29th October.
